Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 230:
- If a whole number divides 230 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 230 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 230 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 230
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 230 (√230 ) are possible divisor factors of 230
- √230 = 15.1658
- Possible Divisor Factors of 230: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 230 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 230 (filtered): 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 11, 13, 14
- Divide 230 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 230: 1, 2, 5, 10, 23, 46, 115, 230
- Factor Pairs of 230: (1*230) (2*115) (5*46) (10*23)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
